My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

>>𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐈𝐍 𝐀 𝐅𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄 - 𝒇𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒆𝒕 𝒖𝒑 𝒂 𝒎𝒆𝒆𝒕 & 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒕<<

Cujo is no Stephen King villain! He's an old hound boy just looking for love and affection, and a comfy couch. He's lived with other dogs most of his life, and is also GREAT with KIDS & CATS! His foster mom has nothing but good things to say about him, and frankly lets him sleep in bed with her since that's what he seemed used to doing - don't take away an old man's small joys in life! He maintains total indifference to felines, is house-trained, knows basic commands and acts like he and his 10 lb Chihuahua roommate have known each other their whole lives! "Sixty pounds of snuggle bug!"

More about this shelter

Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center is an open admissions animal shelter and is home to dozens of animals looking for their forever homes. We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.

The Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center began operation in September of 2011. Since opening, we have successfully lowered the euthanasia rates for our community! Our shelter's current save rate is 95 percent, which is the direct result of our dedicated staff and volunteers working hard to finding these animals their forever homes. Please call the shelter with any questions regarding animals found on the website for more information.

We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
